I'm not sure I understand where the fonts on that page are coming from. They don't seem to be the serious Adobe professional fonts, many of which are available from font-as-a-service providers at a cost. Rather, they seem to be a lot of familiar things people are already using via Google Web Fonts and other free sources: Arvo, PT Sans, League Gothic, etc. Some (all?) of these are available under quite open licences, so I'm not sure what right Adobe would have to restrict those anyway.

Chunk is a serious font, we just bought 30 licenses for a variant of it (chunk five) a few months ago.

It's free here: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/ChunkFive

Shit.

Thanks.

A bit curious: 30 variants of Chnuk 5 are not Chunk 5. Where did you buy it from?
